richer sounds. £300 will get you something decent. but depends on whether you need a phono input though. I've always found seperate pre-amps to be a pain in the arse.
If you can stretch to the 400 mark your options increase significantly.

It`s an older Sony TA series. I will have it repaired but I defo will not spend more than £300 on a replacement. I am checking the suggestions out now.
Not sure about 2nd hand ones though? although saying that I got lucky with a quality used and boxed cd deck from ebay.
Thanks for the replies.
I`m not tight

I use a Cambridge Audio A5 one like this

Seems to give decent sound and drives the speakers well
